Liam's POV

After school, my dad picked Sophie and I up from school and dropped us off at my papa's office; Sophie was going to be the last patient of the day so he would drive us home afterwards. After he dropped us off, I looked Sophie who was staring at the building. She was scared and there was nothing wrong with it; I just wished I could take it away. I took her hand and she gave me a nervous—no terrified looked and I smiled. "Everything is going to be fine, Soph."

"I don't know if I can do this." Sophie said, ignoring my comment.

"Yes you can." I told her, taking both of her hands as I led her into the building slowly. "You have met my papa, he won't hurt you. And remember, I'm going to be there the whole time." We kept walking until we got into the empty waiting room and sat down. He told me this morning to wait in the waiting room because he did have a patient right before Sophie.

I held her hands, rubbing my thumb back and forth on the back of her hand as we waited. Then we heard a sound coming from another room—oh the horrid sound. I somehow forgot how much I hated the sound; it gave me chills.

I looked at Sophie, hoping she didn't see me jump. I smiled at her and she smiled back. A few minutes we saw a man leave the office along with my papa coming out to see us. Sophie tensed up when she saw him.

"Sophie." He said and she looked up nervously. I could see she looked even more anxious since he came out. "Don't worry, first we're going to take some x-rays, okay?" Sophie nodded, squeezing my hand. Papa took her back and did the x-rays while I went into the exam room.

Sophie's POV

Liam's father took me back to the room to get "x-rays" while he went into the exam room we would be in a few minutes. I wondered if he was going to talk to me; I wouldn't blame for wanting to know why I chose this method.

"Liam told me you are quite the actress, but—"

"I'm flattered." I replied.

"If you don't mind me asking, was this your first choice when my husband and I asked you to do this favor?" He asked me and I honestly don't know if it was my first or if it was after I decided that those might not work as well. I shrugged. "It's fine, I guess trick the phobic patient is a method—I remember using it."

"On Liam?" I asked.

"No my husband." He replied. So both Liam and his other dad both were afraid—I guess it runs in the family. "Anyway, thanks again for doing this."

"So does he have something wrong or what?" I asked wondering if Liam was just really good at hiding pain or if he was just avoiding this place altogether.

"No, but I guess I'll see." I nodded, I really hoped that he didn't have anything wrong. I imagined this would be stressful for him, especially when he found out that I had tricked him into coming here.

"Well, we better get back." I stated and he nodded in agreement. Liam was waiting and we didn't want to make him wait for too long. I had to get back into "character" and then I followed his father back into an exam room where Liam was.

Liam's POV

I paced back and forth. I noticed all the tools and felt a small pit in my stomach—I guess things never change.

Eventually Sophie walked into the room and stood by me as my papa came into the room. Sophie grabbed my hand once he sat down next to the patient's chair. "Why don't you take a seat Sophie? I'd like to have a look before looking at the x-rays." He said, smiling. I looked at Sophie with a grin; she didn't notice. She didn't move, she stood there and kept squeezing my hand tighter and tighter.

"Ow, ow!" I exclaimed when she started to squeeze a little too hard. "Soph, ease up on the grip. Please." She did a little, but I eventually had to let go.

"Liam." Sophie and I turned to look at my papa. "Why don't you show Sophie that it isn't so bad?" He suggested and at the point, I gulped.

So it looks like it has fallen into place. Liam has fallen into Nick and Sophie's trap! Liam in the chair is up next! :)
